Every feature you'd expect — and a few you wouldn't

A complete hosting control panel, from domain management to AI-assisted administration. Items marked PRO require a Pro license.

Hosting essentials

Domains, web & DNS

Domain management

Full domain lifecycle: creation, suspension, transfer, and per-domain settings.

Web server & vhosts

Apache vhost management with PHP-FPM and PHP module control per site.

DNS management

Full DNS zone editing with bulk IP update tools across many domains at once.

SSL & Let's Encrypt

Manual SSL certificate installs or fully automated free Let's Encrypt issuance and renewal.

IP address management

Track and assign IP addresses across your server fleet.

Cron jobs

A full cron job manager for scheduled tasks on every hosted account.

Website redirects

Per-domain URL redirects, generated straight into the vhost — no .htaccess files to manage or lose track of.

Custom error pages

Your own branded 404, 500, and other error pages per domain, applied directly to the vhost config.

Directory password protection

Password-protect any directory with HTTP Basic Auth, multiple users per directory, all from the client portal.

Custom MIME types

Map custom file extensions to MIME types per domain, without touching server-wide Apache config.

Webserver switch

Move a domain between Apache and Nginx from the panel — vhost, SSL, and PHP-FPM configuration is regenerated automatically, no manual config surgery.

Website preview

Preview a site over a temporary proxy URL before its DNS has propagated — see it live without editing your local hosts file.

Page Builder

A visual, drag-and-drop page editor (GrapesJS) for any domain — edit text, layout, and styling with no code, start from a built-in template or open an existing page, and save straight to the live document root.

PRO
Client PHP Settings

Per-domain PHP-FPM pool tuning — memory limits, max children, timeouts — directly from the client portal, no admin ticket required.

PRO
Communication

Mail & webmail

Email accounts

Create and manage mailboxes, aliases, and quotas per domain.

Email statistics

Delivery, bounce, and usage stats per mailbox and per domain.

Integrated webmail

A built-in webmail client — no separate login or install required.

Mail Queue Manager

A full admin view of the qmail delivery queue — search, filter, and sort every message, bulk-delete or wake stuck deliveries, with real pagination that doesn't silently cap out at 100 messages.

DKIM & secure mail delivery

Automatic DKIM signing and per-domain mail TLS (SNI-based, one certificate per hosted mail.<domain>) — better inbox placement and encrypted delivery by default, no manual DNS/cert juggling.

Calendar & Contacts

CalDAV/CardDAV calendars and address books per mailbox, plus domain-shared calendars/contacts with public tokens. Works with Apple Calendar/Contacts, iOS, Thunderbird, DAVx⁵, and Outlook — no Dovecot dependency.

PRO
AI Spam Filter

AI-based spam detection with quarantine, one-click whitelisting, and multi-provider support.

PRO
Security

Lock it down by default

Firewall

System-level firewall management from the panel UI.

Fail2ban

Automatic brute-force protection for SSH and hosted services.

ClamAV

Built-in antivirus scanning for hosted files and mail.

IP allow / deny lists

Whitelist and blocklist management for fine-grained access control.

Country blocking

Drop all incoming traffic from an entire country at the firewall level, with a built-in self-lockout check so you can't accidentally block your own IP.

SSH config & terminal

Manage SSH settings and open a terminal session straight from the browser.

Licensing system

Built-in license activation and validation, integrated with SysAdminBillCP.

Fix Scripts

One-click repair for common issues — mail queue stalls, permission drift, quota mismatches, and more — instead of SSHing in to fix it by hand.

Operations

Files, databases & backups

File manager

A full browser-based file manager for every hosted account.

Databases & phpMyAdmin

MySQL/MariaDB database management with single sign-on into phpMyAdmin.

FTP accounts

Create and manage FTP accounts scoped to each hosted domain.

Jailed SFTP access

Native OpenSSH chroot + internal-sftp — clients get real SFTP access locked to their own home directory, nothing else on the server is reachable. Toggle per client via Resource Plan.

Backup & restore

One-click backups and restores covering web, mail, databases, and DNS.

cPanel & KloxoNG migration

Direct import tools to move accounts in from cPanel or KloxoNG without manual re-entry. SSL, DKIM, PHP, and every vhost are set up automatically after the import finishes — no Fix Scripts to run by hand.

PRO
DNS Cluster & Remote Zone Import

Designate other SysAdminHCP servers as cluster members and every zone change replicates to them automatically as a live BIND slave — redundant, geographically distributed DNS with zero manual sync. Also import zones directly from any remote BIND server (including split/include-based configs like KloxoNG's), no re-typing records by hand.

PRO
Client & resource plans

Manage client accounts with configurable resource plans and limits.

App Installer

One-click WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, and Nextcloud installs onto any domain — downloads the release, provisions the database, and configures it automatically where a CLI installer is available.

PRO
Email Migration

Pull an old mailbox over from another provider via IMAP straight into the local mail server — no separate migration tool, and the source password is never stored.

PRO
Bandwidth Analyzer & Limiter

Real per-domain traffic collection from access logs on a monthly billing cycle, with admin and client dashboards, 12-month history, and configurable auto-suspension when a client goes over their quota.

Client relationships

Support tickets & alerts

Support Tickets

A self-contained help desk for your own hosting clients — departments, priorities, and threaded replies — independent of your SysAdminHCP vendor support channel.

PRO
Event Notifications

Automatic alerts for SSL and domain expiry, disk and bandwidth quota, and service outages — delivered by email and optional webhook, with a live bell/dropdown in the client portal.

PRO
Log Center

A unified log viewer across the panel, web server, mail, database, and security services, with search, severity filtering, auto-refresh, export, and an audit trail of admin actions.

Automation

AI Agent

AI features require your own account with a compatible AI provider (Ollama Cloud, OpenAI, Anthropic/Claude, Google Gemini, or GitHub Copilot) — you supply the API key, and usage is billed by that provider, not SysAdminHCP. Ollama Cloud is recommended: it's inexpensive, supports the tool-calling the AI Agent needs, and an API key is quick to generate at ollama.com/settings/keys — the glm-5.2:cloud model is a strong default choice.

Natural-language admin

Ask the AI Agent to perform routine server administration tasks in plain English.

PRO
Playbooks & NL scripts

Save repeatable admin routines as playbooks the agent can run on demand or on a schedule.

PRO
Scheduled tasks & private KB

Schedule recurring agent tasks and give it a private knowledge base about your environment.

PRO
Autonomous Mode

Continuous background monitoring of system health, support tickets, security activity, and backups. Specific actions — restart a service, reply to a ticket, retry a failed backup — are available for delegation, but every action stays off until you explicitly enable it, each with its own confirmation.

PRO
Look & feel

Themes & white-label appearance

Multiple themes

Several built-in themes for both the admin panel and client portal.

Density & font controls

Fine-tune spacing and font size to match how your team likes to work.

White-label ready

Brand the panel and client portal as your own hosting product.

Fully responsive

Both the admin panel and client portal work cleanly on a phone or tablet — no desktop-only screens.
